Click Send yourself a password reset e-mail message.

If you added an alternate e-mail address to your credentials, click Send an e-mail message to my alternate e-mail address, and then click Send Message.

–or–

If you use the Save my e-mail address and password option when you sign in, click the option to send an e-mail message to your usual e-mail address, and then click Send Message. You'll be able to access your e-mail because your password was automatically saved.

Open your alternate e-mail account, and follow the instructions in the password reset e-mail message.

usual email address? where the hell is that option too!?

this makes no sense, it just tells me it will reset the poassword, and send it to the address it is reseting!

It's been a while (measurable in years) since I've dealt with any of that, but you may wish to see if there are other password reset options available at https://accountservices.passport.net.

There at least used to be a secret question/answer reset feature.  Of course, I am not sure you ever get to select one when signing up for hotmail...
